The actor did get along with most of his costars and fellow Hollywood elite. He brought solitary characters like Peter Sellers out of their shell, bluntly asked Frank Sinatra about his connections to the mob, and even claims Lana Turner taught him a new kissing technique. He was also able to see behind-the-scenes details about major feuds. He got introduced to Bette Davis and knew exactly why she hated Joan Crawford until they had both passed away. He also saw Rex Harrison stand to the side on stage because he couldn’t bear to sing a love song to Julie Andrews.
His charm wasn’t able to win over everyone. Grace Jones played music so loud that he lost his cool and threw a chair at her, but they eventually made up. His most-hated costar made be Hervé Villechaize, who he went so far as to call a “diseased sex maniac.” It wasn’t only co-stars that made Roger uncomfortable on the set of Bond films. He hated the excessive violence they perpetuated. He’d also been afraid of guns since being shot by a BB as a child and having an army gun blow up on him later in his life.
What he did love was the recognition the role brought him. He saw no downside to having passersby notice him. He also loved wearing such beautiful suits and kept a few of them.

YES! Thank you for asking. I'd love to see a good video on Stewart Granger. The "Prisoner of Zenda" made me fall in love with him although the original 1937 film was brilliant as well . Please add Ronald Colman to the list. I fell in love with him in Random Harvest - another brilliant film. Warm wishes from Northern California :)

My best friend bought me the Blu Ray collection and when I got to For Your Eyes Only it instantly became my absolute favorite Bond installment. My fiance and I love the song, we listen to it all the time and plan to do a Bond themed wedding with a bride and groom dance to the song. I even bought the Marvel comic book of it on eBay. It's the very best and most underrated Bond installment out there. Everything about it is top tier. Absolutely everything. The only thing I would change is to transition to the credits directly after Melina says "For your eyes only, darling".

I was fortunately enough to meet him in person. Some years ago he was in my country at an UNICEF event. His wife got ill and he had to go home. I'm a cameramen and they called me urgently to go and film a his adress for the event. It was so urgent I didn't even time to wait for my assistant, so I had to do everything, driving, camera, light, sound.... It was filmed amazingly qiuckly in spite he had quite a lot of text. When he realized I was there alone, he was pretty surprised, he even helped me carry all my stuff to my car! Come on, who can say Roger Moore carried his tripod and lights? After then he even invited me for a drink. Such a nice guy! A colleague of mine is The biggest James Bond fan ever, he has an entire room of VHS tapes, DVDs with different editions of 007 movies, from originals to Arabic titled, Chinese dubbed, you name it. He was filming a no budget movie and when he heard Roger Moore will be near, he contacted him and told him about himself. Mr Moore came to his movie set and played a cameo role. For free, of course. Total respect!

Oh yeah, you need to have a somewhat stronger stomach for "A view to a kill" compared to most Bonds ("Licence to kill" probably comes closest to rivaling it), but that's just another example of the franchise adapting to the era, and 1985 was truly the era of the the brutal action movie. One of my favorites in the series, that also made me a Christopher Walken fan for life. I really don't think any other actor will ever equal Roger Moore as Bond, but hopefully the next Bond will re-introduce the element of fun that was Moore's forte. The Craig movies are decidedly dull and unfunny, through no fault of Craig's own.

Contrary to your commentary, Roger Moore was an established star before he made any Bond film. He appeared in several TV series such as Ivanhoe, The Alaskans, Maverick and The Saint and it was this latter series which established him as an international star and he then made The Persuaders with Tony Curtis. He had also made several films - The Sins of Rachel Cade (with Angie Dickinson), Gold of The Seven Saints (with Clint Walker), Crossplot and The Man Who Haunted Himself.

Sir Roger Moore, a class act in every way possible. His James Bond tenure might not be my favorite, but I always respected him because unlike some other actors like Sir Sean Connery who became bitter at the end of his tenure or George Lazenby who was difficult to work with, Sir Roger saved the franchise and he did with elegance. Even during the end when people were kind of mean and a bit distasteful about his age, he never held any grudge or lashed out. Rather he replied with wit and class.

Roger Moore will always be my favorite James Bond. Period. Yes, his tenure was early 70's - mid 80's, so his portrayal always seemed most apropos for that time. For me it was the Playboy / Excess Bond era, and no one was more suave than Roger. " Spy" might be his crowning achievement, but my favorite (and top five from the entire franchise) is "For Your Eyes Only." Everything about it was perfect in my eyes. You had the drama, the tech, the laughs, great action and a great score by Bill Conti. Excellent title song by Sheena Easton. Definitive Roger Moore outing. But as I'm a huge fan of the entire series, it's sure to come up... The rest of the best Bonds : 2. Connery - truly the best Bond hands down. Umm, do I have to explain? 3. Craig - Casino Royale alone is one of the best in the series and all around excellent film. 4. Brosnan - He had all the best traits from the previous actors. But for me, looked like James Bond the most. His first, Goldeneye will always be his best. 5. Dalton - Darker, more serious. At first, I missed Roger but then took notice and loved what he brought to the table. Both his films were very good. But had he been given that third outing, he definitely would've reached success. 6. Lazenby - OHMSS is one of the best Bond films and Lazenby was excellent. Great action and story which brings a third dimension to the character. Diana Ring was tremendous. Don't snooze on this one! It has it all!

The island was virtually unknown when the movie was made and looked pristine as it does in the movie. After the movie it became a tourist trap and is unrecognizable to what you see in the film. Sad but not surprising.

Well, he was the best Bond and yet the farthest from how Fleming wrote him . People often don't mention how Bond in the novels is practically a usual, ordinary man with exotic job and unusual hobbies. But he was very much down to earth and quite emotional. Despite, that persona occasionally crept in Moore's character which reportedly he hated doing. And make no mistake, Bond shooting Stromberg in TSWLM was very much in the vein of literal Bond.

I have heard some of RM's Bond audiocommentaries and read his memoir on making Live and let Die, a very funny and candid book. LOve that RM later supported Unicef.

He also got on very well with Richard 'Jaws' Kiel and they kept in contact until Kiel died in 2014. Plus the role of Max Zorin was written with David Bowie in mind but Bowie turned the role down as he was a neighbour of Moore's at one point in Switzerland and had taken offence to Moore continually inviting himself round (at this point in his life Bowie wanted to be alone as he was desperately trying to give up drugs and booze so didn't appreciate Moore turning up unexpectedly with bottles of Champagne). Interestingly Moore had also known Lois Maxwell since the 1940s when they were at the same drama school at the same time so it was fate that brought them together thirty years later in the Bond movies. He certainly led an interesting life and whilst not the greatest of actors he was nonetheless a competent one and was wise enough to not emulate Connery's 007 and instead brought his own personality to the role. As for Herve Villechaize, it's no secret Moore didn't like him and found him to be creepy but sadly as Villechaize got older he started to become in increasing pain due to his condition and shot himself aged 50 when the pain got too much to live with.

OHMSS. Lazenby with only one chance did a remarkable job. Wore the clothes of the day better than most others. Moved like an athlete. Had credible scenes showing a range of emotions. Put up with a co star with Ego issues. As a film it moved to different outside settings and back into studio better than almost any other. As cinema it is head and shoulders above any other.

My first Bond film, in a movie theater, was The Man With the Golden Gun. While not considered the best Bond picture, it remains the most exotic. I was happy to see Roger Moore pick up the Bond mantle. I grew up watching the Saint and still watch episodes of that show now. I miss Sir Roger's wit.

I started seeing Bond movies in the theater when he replaced Sir Sean Connery . I've always thought Sir Roger helped make the Bond movies a little less dark and serious and a little more family friendly . My favorite movie he did wasn't a Bond movie but a movie called The Wild Geese . It seems most of the cast were known actors from England . I still think it's his best action movie .

My Dad (still alive) hooked me onto Bond movies since I was...10 or 11 telling how much fan he had back when he was at that age. My favorite Bonds are Goldfinger, Live and Let Die, A View to a Kill, The Living Daylights and Goldeneye.

How can you not get along with Audrey Hepburn, she had reputation as being one of few actresses who was as beautiful in nature as her physical appearance, suspect the issue were with Rex not Audrey.

Regarding the dirty truck they played on Audrey by not using her singing voice. Having heard her version I think she did quites will as a nonsinger. Certainly as good as Rex. What they wanted was Andrew’s voice and Image screen presence. So they were unfair to both. Of course they really underestimated Andrews, this despite her huge TV Success in “Cinderella"

I loved that part where Christopher Walden was shooting down people relentlessly while screaming "Bastards" to his victims, it captured the character perfectly. No idea why Roger Moore would be against that tbh.

I had never heard of 007 when my parents took me to see "The Spy Who Loved Me". As a gadget-loving teenager one can imagine my glee from the very start, when Bond's wristwatch's built-in Telex starts printing out a message while he's making out. Priceless, and then it only got better. Almost bought an Aston just to feel a bit of Bond myself. Almost. Thank you, Sir Moore.

Roger was "one of a kind". They would never be able to find out another perfect Lord Brett Sinclair like Roger. And yet a Lloyd in "Boat Trip" was a perfect match. This is a prove of his great talent. RIP Roger. We miss you.
